The accident happened Tuesday evening around 6pm when a 61 year-old man driving a pickup truck slammed into them. The driver of the truck stopped after the accident.

Pedestrians are particularly at risk for incurring serious injuries if they are struck by a vehicle.  A number of factors can create a situation where they may be hit by a vehicle. If a driver is at fault for their injuries an accident attorney can file a lawsuit to obtain compensation to cover their medical costs.

Accident lawyers will apply their investigative skills to determine if a driver’s negligence caused the collision. Not only can an accident attorney work on litigation, but they are also able to negotiate with insurance companies to make certain accident victims receive a fair and just settlement for their suffering.
